Darkness Becomes Her




Ari can't help feeling lost and alone.With teal eyes and freakish silver hair that can't be changed or destroyed, Ari has always stood out. And after growing up in foster care, she longs for some understanding of where she came from, and who she is.


Her search for answers uncovers just one message from her long dead mother: RUN. Ari can sense that someone, or something is getting too close. But it's impossible for her to protect herself when she doesn't know what she is running from or why she is being pursued.


She knows only one thing: She must return to her birthplace of New 2, the lush rebuilt city of New Orleans. Upon arriving she discovers that New 2 is very...different. Here, Ari is seemingly normal. But every creature she encounters, no matter how deadly or horrifying, is afraid of her.


Ari won't stop until she knows why. But some truths are too haunting, to terrifying to ever be revealed.



For anyone who likes Greek mythology this will be a book you will love! Kelly Keaton takes the goddess Athena and Medusa and turns them on their ears. I was enraptured from the get go. You can't help but want to know what Ari is with her silver hair, and strange colored eyes. Every time I thought I had it figured out...yep...I was wrong! Ari is a strong herione who can take care of herself and yet, all she wants is to be loved. But when she finds herself giving her heart to Bastian, will she only find herself heartbroken and alone? Can she trust the Nevom? They say they will offer her sanctuary, but will they turn their backs on her and use the monster within her for their own gain? Poor Ari only knows that she has finally found herself in a place where she feels like she belongs, but when someone she loves is taken without a trace Ari vows only one thing. Vengence.



This is a thrilling read and will have you turning pages faster than you want, just to find out what happens next! You will love Ari, Bastian, and the strange little girl Violet who captures Ari's heart at first sight. I know the next book will have just as many twists and turns in it and I can't wait to read it!


I gave this book 3 stars!
